No More Thrills for Failla

Livello 7 : 150/300, 25 ante

Will "The Thrill" Failla was short-stacked and under the gun when he moved all in for 1,400. Action folded around to the player in the big blind and he called. The hands were tabled and off to the showdown:

Failla: {K-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}
Big Blind: {A-Clubs} {K-Diamonds}

The board ran {5-Spades} {4-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {5-Clubs} and Failla was sent to the rail.

Feldman Doubles Up

Livello 7 : 150/300, 25 ante

From under the gun, Andrew Feldman moved all in for his last 2,775 before the flop and the action folded around to a player in middle position who reraised. The others got out of the way before the cards were tabled:

Feldman: {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Opponent: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

Board: {8-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}

Feldman's set was more than enough to pick up the pot and stay alive in this tournament.

Lindgren Puts Down iPad, Plays Poker

Livello 7 : 150/300, 25 ante

Erick Lindgren has decided to put his iPad away on concentrate on some poker. From the cutoff he opened for 1,200 and got a call from the small blind. The flop came out {Q-Clubs} {4-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} and Lindgren bet out 1,400. The small blind appeared to think about calling, but then folded.

Lindgren flashed a king as he mucked his hand and is up to 16,000. See what happens when you put the tech toys away kids?

"Humberto Makes A Squeeze Play" by Humberto Brenes

We caught up to the action, or rather were called over to the action by Humberto Brenes. While a player sat and thought about what he was going to do Brenes was kind enough to tell us how the action went. He says that a player in late position made a raise which the small blind called.

Brenes then raised on the big blind and made it 2,000. The player in late position folded and after a few minutes of contemplation the small blind folded.

Humberto being Humberto was kind enough to let his opponent see one of his cards, and a {K-Diamonds} was flipped.

Jon Turner Quietly Lucks Out

We found Jon Turner at his table raising under the gun only to be reraised by a player in middle position who had gone all in for about 7000 in chips. Turner contemplated for a couple of minutes before ultimately putting the chips in the middle. Cards were turned over and Turner was in bad shape as his {6-}{6-} needed a lot of help to beat his opponent's {K-}{K-}.

The cards fell {J-}{6-}{8-}{2-}{9-} and with a set of sixes, ever so quiet Turner added more chips to his consistently high stack.

Scotty Says he was Slow-Playing

We don't know the action preflop, but when we got to Scotty Nguyen's table he was calling a bet from the person in front of him on a board of {A-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{9-Spades}.

Both players decided to check on the {5-Clubs} turn. On the {7-Clubs} river however it was Nguyen who put out a bet of 2,000 after his opponent checked to him.

The player in early position folded, and Nguyen showed him what he had claiming he had slow played him. Nguyen however did not show us what he was holding...
